My research focuses on economic history, in particular that of the United Kingdom. Recently, I have also taken an interest in the history of trade policy disputes wherein various economists take part in the discussion. As such, I intend to advance research that refers to past academic theories in an effort to shed light on ways to resolve economic problems related to modern communities.
